(Although what I'd really like to say is more like "Je suis fatigu=E9 et j'ai someil.") In the lojban, I opt for precision over the parallelism: {.i mi tatpi le'a ge lo si'o xadni gi lo si'o sipna} Is {le'a} appropriate here? Is {si'o} appropriate? (I initially went with {su'u}) I seem to recall the fact that {.i mi tatpi le'a lo si'o ge xadni gi sipna} means something fundamentally different, but I can't recall what; I'd prefer to use this phrasing if it still expresses what I mean, since it's more compact and doesn't repeat {lo si'o}. --=20 mu'o mi'e .arpis. --=20 You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "= Lojban Beginners" group.
